Love is the Spirit of this Church, and Service is its Prayer.

WORSHIP SERVICE

"Trust the Body"
Sunday, March 16, 2025, 10:50 am
Rev. Vanessa Rush Southern, Senior Minister

What does it mean to live an embodied life, to treat the body as a shrine and as a source of wisdom? What happens when we don't? Maybe trust isn't just between two people or out in the world, but in one of the most fundamental relationships to ourselves?

CONGREGATIONAL COVENANT

Under Construction

In an effort to make the world a better place, we support each other’s journey to seek truth with openness, curiosity and respect for different perspectives and paths.


As love is our spirit, we commit to respect, accept, listen to and support each other.


We hold ourselves and each other accountable by continually assessing our individual and community actions toward living into our covenant. This will include speaking up when someone’s actions are not aligned.


We commit to be in community with openness and loving kindness, acknowledging our own biases and differing perspectives.


We welcome the newcomer, we commit to building trust with each other, we celebrate differences and make space for repair when harm occurs.
